English Abano Grand Hotel
Among olive and palm trees, with indoor and outdoor thermal pools and three restaurants.
5-star
Abano Terme lives by its thermal waters, which rise at about 87 °C, and its matured mud, famous since Roman times; it is one of Europe's largest spa towns, with hotels that have their own pools. Through Zonetransfers, a driver meets you as you leave baggage reclaim at VCE and drives you to Abano Terme from €138 per vehicle.
The drive from VCE to Abano Terme covers about 55 km, usually 50 min door to door. From the airport the route takes the A4 to Padua and the Euganean Hills road south-west; the car drops you at your spa hotel's reception. Zonetransfers sends the voucher by email with a 24-hour number.
